When debating religion, you can take the low road (e.g., Ann Coulter’s recent flirtation with anti-semitism) or the high road. Here’s Richard Dawkins, an avowed atheist and evolutionary biologist at Oxford, having a high-minded conversation about the existence (or non-existence) of God with Alister McGrath, who is Professor of Historical Theology at Oxford University and also has a background in molecular biophysics. We’ve posted the videotaped debate below. (And, by the way, you can download the video to an iPod by accessing the video here, looking to the right where it says “Download to Video iPod” and following these instructions).
